Harley looks around apprehensively, but then takes on a commanding role as he glares at the hares surrounding them. "Well, wot're ye waitin' fer? Go grab sum wire'n needles an' all that good ol' stichin' stuff, ye scallywags!"

After some days of traveling, the army of Shadowbane finds itself on the fringe of the forest and the beach of Mossflower as the sun sets. Daggat looks to Shadowbane and then points to the mountain. "There 'tis, boss. We'll reach within the next day. Shall we keep goin' or set up camp?"

Arkan once again wakes up to the blade of Slipshade at his throat. The fox snarls. "What is it this time? Come to kill me at last?" Slipshade shakes his head.

"You'll thank me later." He then goes over and stands next to the tent flap, knife in paw. Moments later, two ferrets quietly slip into the tent like shadows and approach Arkan's bed. However, before they can take another step, Slipshade quickly kills both of them and kicks their bodies aside. Arkan jumps out of the bed, confused.

"What is the meaing of this?" Slipshade smiles as he stows his knife.

"You have something that I need, and I just saved your life. I'd say that's a fair bargain." Arkan looks at the two dead ferrets and scowls.

"They were trying to kill me? How do you know?"

Slipshade moves back towards the tent flap and suddenly becomes invisible. "I was born in the shadows, and I've been following you. I can hear things. You abandoned your cause and sent your army off with an imposter. Of course they want to kill you." Arkan shakes his head.

"What do you want, rat?" The black rat appears again, this time much closer to Arkan.

"You have an archer, by the name of Firuz, and I wish to kill the fox Shadowbane. Seeing as my last attempt failed, I'll need your bowbeast." Arkan notices Slipshade's paw on the hilt of his knife and shrugs. "Take him. I care not what happens to the real Marlfoxes and the fake ones, as long as I never have to look upon your filthy snout again, rat."
